È l'alba a Marinella e il sonno di Montalbano viene interrotto dal canto di un usignolo. O almeno così pare al commissario, salvo poi scoprire che si tratta del fischiettare di un vagabondo che ha trovato rifugio nella verandina durante un temporale di fine estate. Un barbone sui generis però, perché parla un italiano perfetto e si vede che ha conosciuto tempi migliori. Nel villino lungo la strada che costeggia il mare nessun segno di effrazione, nessuna traccia di lotta: l'uomo è stato colpito alla nuca da un colpo di pistola mentre seduto in cucina stava bevendo un caffè.

Sizilianische Sommer sind heiß - und mörderisch, wenn man der Wahrheit zu nahe kommt. Alle machen Urlaub - bis auf Commissario Montalbano. Als er auf der Suche nach einem vermissten Feriengast eine alte Villa durchforstet, macht er eine grauenvolle Entdeckung: In einem Koffer findet er die Leiche einer Frau, die seit Jahren als vermisst gilt. Kurz darauf nimmt eine geheimnisvolle Unbekannte Kontakt zu ihm auf, die der Toten zum Verwechseln ähnlich sieht.

Montalbano sieht sich mit einem rätselhaften Mordfall konfrontiert, als er Angelo Pardo in obszöner Position tot in dessen Wohnung auffindet. Alles deutet auf ein Verbrechen aus Leidenschaft hin, gab es doch mehrere Frauen, die um Pardos Gunst buhlten. Aber auch wenn die weiblichen Zeugen alles daransetzen, dem Commissario die Sinne zu verwirren, verliert er doch nie den Blick für das Wesentliche.

"Hay una miríada de relatos en la tradición judía, y en parte también en la musulmana, que describe a Caín de forma diferente a la versión bíblica; y yo, que al fin y al cabo no soy más que un cuentacuentos, he trabajado sobre esos relatos alternativos." En esta obra, Andrea Camilleri ofrece una visión insólita y sorprendente del primer homicida de la historia. Se trata de un Caín inventor del concepto de elección, y por tanto de la idea de responsabilidad de la que descienden las nociones tan radicadas en la cultura occidental, de culpa y culpabilidad.
